EPDM Coatings Facts.

EPDM Rubber has had a long history of superior performance in hoses, molded products, tires and roofing membranes. For example, the radiator hoses in our cars and the gaskets on our freezer doors are made of EPDM rubber and show the broad temperature range the product can handle. EPDM Roofing Membranes also have more than 30 years of successful history.

EPDM is relatively inexpensive, simple to install, and fairly clean to work with when compared to conventional materials. There are not the strong odors and fumes either. The product is very stable and the resulting characteristics of Liquid EPDM such as flexibility, weatherability and chemical resistance are determined by it.

EPDM roofs are suitable for most types of facilities, offer various mil thicknesses, and can be purchased in either black or white. It should be noted that the solar reflectivity of a black roof is only 8%, which is a major factor in the Sun Belt.

Drawbacks of EPDM roofs include vulnerability to physical abuse; lack of layer redundancy; temperature sensitivity of adhesion points and sealing tape used for seams; and poor resistance to chemicals, cooking fats, and greases. As noted earlier, these roof systems don't always meet local wind uplift code requirements.

EPDM Attributes

Colorful EPDM rubber granule feature :real raw material, non slip ,non-static ,high flexibility ,withstanding wear and tear dencay, sharp color, light gravity, strong adhesiveness ,and there is no dust and powder absorption on it and very clean. EPDM particle is a kind of high-tech chemical and environment-friendly product. As the ternary polymer made up of ethylene, propylene and a small quantity of the unconjugated, EPDM has extremely excellent features of ozone resistance, weather resistance, aging resistance and electrical insulation and outstanding color stability.

The performance of EPDM track:

1. Environment friendly: Non-toxic, nuisanceless and satisfactory.
2. All-weather use: It can keep high quality in any seasons and under any temperature difference and can be used immediately after rain.
3. Elasticity: It has proper elasticity and anti-elasticity that can decrease the consumption of physical energy and increase competition performance.
4. Absorption of impact force: It can moderately absorb the impact force of foot, decrease sports damage and is suitable for long-term exercise and competition.
5. Weather resistance: It wont fade, powder or soften due to ultraviolet, ozone and acid rain and can keep fresh color permanently
Wearing resistance: It has strong friction resistance, so it can meet the demand on long-term and high-frequency use.
6. Compressibility resistance: Its impossible that the elasticity cannot recover due to the weight of athletic equipment.
9. Resistance to impact: It has tenacious elastic layer and buffer layer. So it can absorb strong impact without any damage to the surface.
10. Flatness: The surface is flat due to the use of self-flatting material when construction. So it can meet the requirement of especially flat sports ground.
11. Strong adhesion: It can be used for special construction with strong adhesion and can prevent water rising without bubble and desquamation etc.
12. Security: It can prevent injury due to tumble.
13. Economy: It doesnt need special maintenance except current cleaning.
14. Color: The surface color is soft. The surface material of the particle can prevent the reflection of dazzling light and its beautiful and lasting.
